Child labor remains a challenge in Morocco, but one organization is proving that lasting
change begins with supporting families, not just children.
─────────
After more than 20 years of action, the association Insaf has presented the results of its Child Labor
Prevention Program, highlighting a model focused on education, family support and economic empowerment.
─────────
Today, 425 children aged between 4 and 12 are benefiting from the program across
Lahraouiyine, Mediouna, Hay Hassani and Derb Ghallef.
According to the association, nearly 90% of these children are now successfully attending school.
─────────
The impact extends well beyond education.
Over the years, Insaf says it has helped more than 15,000 women achieve greater economic
independence, protected more than 600 girls from domestic labor and early marriage, rescued
over 400 children from exploitation, forced begging and hazardous work, and provided
personalized support to more than 219 vulnerable families.
─────────
The organization believes that tackling poverty, improving parents’ access to employment
and strengthening family stability are essential to preventing children from entering the workforce.
─────────
Looking ahead, Insaf plans to expand its program by supporting 525 children in 2027 and 625
in 2028, continuing its long-term mission to keep children in school and out of exploitative work.
─────────
One thing is clear.
For Insaf, ending child labor starts with giving families the tools to build a better future.
